Psalms 103

1 By David. Praise the LORD, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!

By David. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And all my inward parts — His Holy Name.

2 Praise the LORD, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits,

Bless, O my soul, Jehovah, And forget not all His benefits,

3 who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,

Who is forgiving all thine iniquities, Who is healing all thy diseases,

4 who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies,

Who is redeeming from destruction thy life, Who is crowning thee — kindness and mercies,

5 who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

Who is satisfying with good thy desire, Renew itself as an eagle doth thy youth.

6 The LORD executes righteous acts, and justice for all who are oppressed.

Jehovah is doing righteousness and judgments For all the oppressed.

7 He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

He maketh known His ways to Moses, To the sons of Israel His acts.

8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

Merciful and gracious [is] Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

9 He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.

Not for ever doth He strive, Nor to the age doth He watch.

10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities.

Not according to our sins hath He done to us, Nor according to our iniquities Hath He conferred benefits upon us.

11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.

For, as the height of the heavens [is] above the earth, His kindness hath been mighty over those fearing Him.

12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

As the distance of east from west He hath put far from us our transgressions.

13 Like a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.

As a father hath mercy on sons, Jehovah hath mercy on those fearing Him.

14 For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

For He hath known our frame, Remembering that we [are] dust.

15 As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

Mortal man! as grass [are] his days, As a flower of the field so he flourisheth;

16 For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.

For a wind hath passed over it, and it is not, And its place doth not discern it any more.

17 But the LORD’s loving kindness is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children,

And the kindness of Jehovah [Is] from age even unto age on those fearing Him, And His righteousness to sons' sons,

18 to those who keep his covenant, to those who remember to obey his precepts.

To those keeping His covenant, And to those remembering His precepts to do them.

19 The LORD has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.

Jehovah in the heavens Hath established His throne, And His kingdom over all hath ruled.

20 Praise the LORD, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, obeying the voice of his word.

Bless Jehovah, ye His messengers, Mighty in power — doing His word, To hearken to the voice of His Word.

21 Praise the LORD, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.

Bless Jehovah, all ye His hosts, His ministers — doing His pleasure.

22 Praise the LORD, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise the LORD, my soul!

Bless Jehovah, all ye His works, In all places of His dominion. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah!
